About us.A customer-driven approach to the food service industry
With most of our products being manufactured in Australia in HACCP certified facilities, and distribution
centres located throughout the East and West coasts, and New Zealand, we have the ability to react quickly
to today’s fast changing markets, and ensure ongoing deliveries.
Our vision.We are on a journey towards creating a circular economy – enabling more packaging to either remain in loops, or have the best possible
opportunity to be recycled. We are proud to be working towards APCO’s goals for 2025:
1. We strive to design our packaging to be fully reusable, recyclable or compostable
2. We strive to use 30% of recycled content in our plastic packaging
3. We strive to eliminate problematic and unnecessary packaging through design, innovation or introduction of alternatives
We’re making progress, and continue to work on a broad set of solutions to ensure that our products do not end up as litter or in landfill.
Innovation.Providing an alternative to traditional oil-based packaging and grown by nature, this new range has been designed with
circularity in mind – helping reduce waste while creating a nutrient-rich compost, a highly valued commodity in the
agricultural industry.

Responsible sourcing of materialsWe are committed to sourcing the most sustainable products and ensuring environmental sustainability plays a part in what we do.
MPM Marketing Services is responsible for procuring sustainable, ethical and responsibly sourced materials, goods and services.
Reduce, Reuse & RecycleMPM Marketing Services is a signatory to the Australian
Packaging Covenant (APCO), a sustainable packaging initiative
that encourages businesses to reduce the environmental
impacts of consumer packaging. We promote sustainable
packaging design, increased recycling rates and efforts to
reduce packaging litter.
The launch of our home compostable range coincides with
the 2025 National Packaging Targets, an industry-driven
collaborative initiative led by APCO to improve material types
and help reduce the amount of waste entering the system,
specifically:
• 100% of all Australia’s packaging will be reusable,
recyclable or compostable by 2025 or earlier
• 70% of Australia’s plastic packaging will be recycled or
composted by 2025
• 30% average recycled content will be included across all
packaging by 2025
• Problematic and unnecessary single-use plastic packaging
will be phased out through design, innovation or
introduction of alternatives.

InnovationPromote a culture of innovation in order to continuously improve the functionality, environmental sustainability and efficiency of all our products.

7Castaway® Home Compostable Range | 2019
Our raw materials.Sugar cane and trees are used to create Castaway® home compostable products.
We source sustainable materials and techniques to reduce our impact on the environment.
Sugar Cane BagasseThe sugar cane plant is fast growing and a highly
renewable material. It reaches maturity in just
nine months. Bagasse is the fibrous matter
that remains after sugar cane or sorghum
stalks are crushed to extract their juice.
Put to good use as sugar cane bagasse
and transformed into packaging products
such as EnviroBoard® clams, plates and bowls,
it is diverted away from landfill, making a big difference to the
environment. Our EnviroBoard® tableware is very sturdy and
has great thermal properties.
Trees – Paper & Paper Board Paper is a natural fibre made from trees. Being renewable,
recyclable, compostable and
biodegradable, it is an important
raw material that replaces many
everyday plastic products.
As part of our commitment
to sustainable sourcing,
we only source paper and paper board from
reputable paper mills with evidence of
sustainable and ethical forestry practices.
All pulp used in paper and kraft manufacture
is derived from sustainably sourced forests
and complies with relevant sustainably forest
standards.
BirchwoodOur EnviroCutlery® range of
wooden cutlery is made from
sustainably sourced birchwood, which
means the wood is only taken from
plantation forests that are harvested
sustainably.
The birch trees taken from the forest were
planted for the purpose of harvesting and
are being harvested for at least a second time. This means that
only as much wood are allowed to be taken from the area as it
can grow back in the same time. It is known for its durability
and its reliability in quality and strength. Our dinnerware has a
rich sheen giving the product an elegant finish.

FAQs.What does compostable mean?Composting is the process of breaking down organic waste
by microbial digestion to create compost. Compost has many
beneficial uses including improving and fertilizing soil. To go
through a composting process, organic waste requires the right
level of heat, water, and oxygen. In a pile of organic waste,
there are millions of tiny microbes that consume the waste,
transforming the organic materials into compost.
Castaway® compostable products completely decompose in a
composting setting in a specific time frame, leaving no harmful
residues behind.
What is the required amount of time for compostable packaging to completely break down?Castaway® home compostable packaging solutions naturally
break down in compostable conditions within 180 days.
What is the difference between biodegradable and compostable?All compostable materials are biodegradable but not all
biodegradable materials are compostable.
Biodegradation is a biological process in which materials are
metabolized into CO2, water and biomass, with the help of
microorganisms.
Compostability describes material that biodegrades within
a time frame of 180 days under composting conditions
— high humidity, high temperature and the presence of
microorganisms and bacteria.
The key difference between compostable and biodegradable is
the timescales. Compostable means that the product will break
down within 25 weeks, whereas biodegradable product could
take much longer (between 90 days and 5 years). Additionally,
biodegradable materials may include toxins and heavy metals.
Why is sustainable packaging so important?Traditional plastic food and beverage packaging is derived from
oil (the world’s scarcest and non-renewable resource), and is a
significant source of landfill waste.
Traditional plastic does not biodegrade, it just sits and
accumulates in landfills, and is regularly eaten by numerous
marine and land animals.
Castaway® compostable range is mostly derived from rapidly
renewable plant resources such as birchwood and sugar cane.
Manufacturing food packaging from plants is a sustainable
alternative when compared to oil-based food packaging. Our
products are designed to be composted after use, broken down
into nutrient-rich compost. Compostable packaging is adherent
to a sustainable, circular economy.
What is the difference between home and industrial composting?While composting under industrial and/or home compost
conditions yield identical results, industrial compost systems
utilize more controlled conditions, such as high heat, high
humidity and the presence of bacteria/microorganisms – all in
all, it is a more efficient process.
Home composting typically varies from season to season, and
is dependent upon the relative atmospheric conditions of the
compost, as well as on anything from local climate and soil
conditions, to what is added to the compost.
What happens if your products end up in landfill?There are certain areas in Australia where accessibility to
commercial composting is limited, and the only disposal
option for our products is landfill. In a modern landfill, nothing
really breaks down. Castaway® products will not compost in a
modern landfill the way they have been designed to.
